Activision has released a new title update for its sales record breaking Call of Duty: Black Ops, which was released in November last year. The PC patch will automatically be downloaded via Steam the next time you login.
The patch is quite a big one, and re-balances weapons, fixes bugs and solves certain mutiplayer exploits. The patch intended to prepare the game for the income modding tools, which are expected to arrive before the end of May.
This will be the first Call of Duty game since CoD4 that will get mod tools for PC. Mod tools are a must-have feature if a game is to be taken seriously in the competitive arena. Treyarch recently confirmed that it is “shooting” for mod tools in May, which ends in just a few days.
